Prospectus Supplement (File No. 333-157646)

Ladies and Gentlemen:

We have examined the Prospectus Supplement, File No. 333-157646 (the “Prospectus Supplement”), to the Registration Statement on Form S-3, File No. 333-157646, of AECOM Technology Corporation, a Delaware corporation (the “Company”), filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission pursuant to the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the “Securities Act”), in connection with the offering by the Company of up to 4,600,000 shares (including shares that may be sold upon exercise of the underwriters’ option to purchase additional shares) of the Company’s common stock, par value $.01 per share (the “Shares”).

We have examined the originals, or photostatic or certified copies, of such records of the Company and certificates of officers of the Company and of public officials and such other documents as we have deemed relevant and necessary as the basis for the opinion set forth below.  In our examination, we have assumed the genuineness of all signatures, the legal capacity and competency of all natural persons, the authenticity of all documents submitted to us as originals and the conformity to original documents of all documents submitted to us as copies.

Based upon the foregoing examination and in reliance thereon, and subject to the assumptions stated and in reliance on statements of fact contained in the documents that we have examined, we are of the opinion that the Shares, when issued against payment therefor, will be validly issued, fully paid and non-assessable.

We consent to the filing of this opinion as an exhibit to the Prospectus Supplement, and we further consent to the use of our name under the caption “Legal Matters” in the Prospectus Supplement.  In giving these consents, we do not thereby admit that we are within the category of persons whose consent is required under Section 7 of the Securities Act or the Rules and Regulations of the Commission.

Very truly yours,
